26 – Club Activities – 2
My mind cooled down after a while. I felt like I knew why the crown prince had bothered to say that here. It was not done impulsively, but was done with thorough calculation.
Now is the time when club promotions are in full swing and people are all around. There are many people, which means there are many eyes to see, and it also means that there are many people who witnessed the proposal.
The moment an answer with a negative connotation is given, that action itself serves as a good cause for the crown prince. No matter what the purpose of using that justification is.
It’s a bonus that I become a crazy person who rejected the prince’s offer.
‘Why on earth are they doing that?’
I was so frustrated that I couldn’t figure out what was going on. The crown prince was smiling as charmingly as usual, ignoring my annoyed gaze.
In the end, it was me who took a step back first.
“I understand, Your Highness the Crown Prince. “What is that offer?”
“This is a suggestion since you don’t seem to have decided on a club yet. “If you don’t plan on working somewhere else, why not join the student council?”
The surroundings suddenly became quiet. The noisy promotions and the excited steps around the club. And confusion spread to the expressions of several people who were following the crown prince from behind.
“...... “What does that mean?”
“It means literally. What I’m saying is that I want to have you join the student council. “It is by my authority as the Crown Prince of the Empire and the President of the Belium Academy Student Council.”
Come to think of it, the crown prince has been serving as president for two years.
It was said that the power of the student council, which had been treated as a group between professors and students without any particular power or anything, was greatly strengthened thanks to the arrival of the crown prince.
“No, Your Majesty the Crown Prince. “Please reconsider your thoughts.”
The pink-haired woman standing behind the crown prince’s right immediately objected. He had been in a panic just a moment ago, but he seemed to have come to his senses to some extent.
‘That woman... ....’
Without even having time to think about her appearance, the crown prince leisurely turned and looked at the pink-haired woman, as if he had expected all of that.
“Are you saying you are against what I personally suggested, Roxanna?”
“...... Yes. That’s right.”
The pink-haired woman called Roxanne hesitated under the weight of her momentum, but she said everything she wanted to say. The Crown Prince opened her mouth again, her mouth smiling but her eyes not smiling.
“Tell me the reason. However, there is something you need to know before that. “If the reason for your opposition to my decision is based simply on your very private and personal feelings of jealousy, then I will not just sit by and watch your actions.”
“...... That.”

Roxanne, who hesitated for a moment due to her fierce spirit, bit her lip hard as if to strengthen her decision and continued her words.
“Because he is still a first year student. Under His Majesty’s infinite guidance, didn’t the student council become an organization that was almost like the backbone of the academy? “We can’t put a first-year student who doesn’t even know Bellium Academy properly in that position.”
‘Aren’t the teachers and the chairman the core of the academy?’
Now that the Crown Prince is sitting in the chairman’s chair, it is understandable that he uses such expressions, but I don’t know what he will do after he graduates.
Even the crown prince is in his third year, so it’s not that far in the future.
Separately from that, it was a valid point. I’m still a freshman and it’s only been 3 weeks since I entered school. There have been a lot of events going on in the meantime, so the entrance ceremony feels like a distant event.
“Would it be okay if I understood that your abilities were lacking?”
“...... Yes?”
Roxanna froze, looking like she was about to make a sound effect.
“I am proud that I have a very good eye for people. And once Mira Krayt joins the student council, I am confident that she will adapt perfectly within three days. However, from what you say, it seems like you are claiming that you need at least a year to adapt to the academy. So, I am asking you if it is okay to understand that your abilities are lacking.”
Her mouth was completely closed. No matter which way she answered, it was obvious that she would end up in trouble.
If I tell her that she is right, I will be denigrating her abilities to a great extent, and if I say no, there will be no reason to stop me from joining the student council.
“Now all I have left is your answer, Mira Krait. What is it like? Will you accept my offer?”
However, Laura began to open her mouth even though Dolores did not respond, as if she knew everything that was going on.
“These days, I feel like I’ve been living only as a man for too long.”
“...... ?”
“I know how to approach him as the crown prince, but I couldn’t figure out how to approach him as a woman. Approaching Mira Krayt as a woman was too...... “Isn’t it a shame?”
Dolores was surprised twice just now.
Firstly, she was embarrassed by the fact that the crown prince was embarrassed, and secondly, by the fact that the crown prince had an embarrassed expression that matched her words.
The sight of Laura blushing slightly, shyly covering her flushed cheeks with her palm, and looking preciously at her index finger that brushed Mira Krait’s lips was a sight Dolores, who had served the crown prince her entire life, had never seen before.
Dolores barely managed to control her expression that was almost broken. Whether she knew it or not, Laura continued her words.
“Every time I saw that person, it was hard to resist the desire to get closer. In the end, I have no choice but to remain in the form of a man...... It was almost obvious that I didn’t like it. “It seemed like he was trying to not show it as much as possible.”
Should this be a fortunate thing? Dolores thought for a moment. If the mummy crate’s tastes had been towards her male counterpart, Laura, the owner might not have been able to reveal her original appearance throughout her life.
“Dolores, I don’t even know why I’m doing this. Just by being near him, my heart feels like it’s pounding, and even just touching one of his fingers makes my whole body warm, making me feel as if I’ve been released from the shackles that had confined me for a long time. “Isn’t this how I fell in love with him at first sight?”
Dolores was silent. Anyone could see that it was a phrase expressing first love, but he was concerned about the expression that it felt like he had been released from his shackles.
What on earth are those shackles? Feeling guilty for making a brother and sister who came out of the same boat on the same level as death row inmates? Or something else?
“It is often said that love comes suddenly, but in my case, I think it was too sudden. Sometimes I wonder if my inner Laura has changed without me even realizing it. “I happen to know two people whose personalities have changed 180 degrees in a similar way.”
“... ....”
“Priscilla Agnes. And Rosaria Leone de Michaela.”
Dolores continued to be silent. Now was the time for him to just listen.
“Priscilla Agnes was a blunt woman with no emotions even when she was in her first year, or even just before her entrance ceremony. However, since she met Mira Krait, there have been constant rumors of her having an affair with him, and she has become obsessed with Mira Krait, and she has turned into a woman with a happy smile.”
“... ....”
“What about candidates for sainthood? When I first met her she was such a naive woman, but her personality has completely changed since I heard that on the night of the demon attack she called Mira Krait into her room. Even more. “Recently, some are even saying that the rumor that was circulating around the area was actually a malicious slander.”
“... ....”
“Dolores. Do you think all of this is just a coincidence? Do you think it is just a coincidence that the two women who were involved with Mira Krayt have become completely different people, and that even I am now on the verge of being swept up in a similar flow of change?”
Dolores, who had remained silent for a long time, finally kissed her lips.
“Do you think he may have tried his hand at forbidden witchcraft?”
Although it is now only a legend, I had heard that she had a magic that could charm or enchant humans and make them feel love.
But Laura shook her head.
“No, that’s not true. If that kind of magic had been used on me, I would have noticed right away. “Right now, this heavenly necklace contains a defensive magic that blocks mental manipulation magic, and isn’t there a similar but much more powerful magic installed in my bedroom?”
“If you say so...... ?”
“I will have to find out for myself with my own body. “Isn’t this Laura Ercarenchia or Cresenne von Euperantis Bellium supposed to be embarrassed by her one man?”
Laura reached for the exquisite necklace hidden between her shirt and tie. As soon as her necklace came off, Laura’s appearance began to change.
From an androgynous pretty boy close to a woman, she changed into an androgynous pretty girl who could easily be called a perfect woman.
“So... ....”
Laura trailed off her words and looked down at her own breasts.
Even though her shirt, vest, and blouse were tightly wrapped in three layers, she did not stop asserting herself. If the things weighing her down from above disappear, she will most likely show off even more majesty than now.
Dolores sensed her master’s intentions and took out something white from her belt.
It was a pressure bandage.
“Let’s start with small changes.”
The pocket that contained the compression bandage just a moment ago was filled with a necklace of heaven.@@@@
